The Hsbrew Race.

America has tie best, the strongest,
the manifest. the handsomest specimens
of the Hebrew r;ce As you go east
ward in Europe you seem to approach
nearer and nearer to the Shakespearean
type. While the Jew in Austria-Hun-
gary is through his financial power the
companion of tie high social classes,
often of the nobility, and sometimes him
self ennobled, as person in the lower
walks of life he preserves the humble
and submissive barring which was until
late years everywhere his most notable
characteristic. Tie suiferance which
was the badge of all his tribe in Shake
speare's time continues to be his distinct
i've mark in the southeast of Europe.
The signs of it hive almost disappeared
at Vienna since his fellows have not
only taken possession of the banks
and all the great corporations; but in
Hungary. in the Ianubian principalities,
in Turkey and il Russia they are still
plainly visible. -mda-Pesth Cor. San

We had a letter recently from Mr.. w.
of these horses sired Flora Temple, but
another of the Kentucky Hunter blood
kept about two miles distant. His state
ment is that the mare came around
second time and was put to another horse
because the two Loomis horses were
absent. In an article published in Dun
cans Magazine for January, 1887, there
are numerous claims made by as many
parties that Flora Temple was sired by
One-eyed Kentucky Hunter; but it does
not appear how any of them could have
known anything about it, and it does
appear, from the statement of one Mr.. H.
l.. Barker, that Bogus was the preferred
horse at the time. We are surprised to
find that brother Wallace is on the Bogus
side, and fighting vigorously for the idea
that the first trotter to trot below 2 30 is
from thoroughbred blood through Imp.
Bogus, with hardly the ghost of chance
for single drop of Messenger blood.
This is bad for the fountain source. Mr..
Wallace says: "Mr. Samuel Welch, a
reputable and truthful man. bred this
mare Flora Temple and he gives facts
and the circumstances connected with the
taking Flora Temples dam to Bogus
Hunter and all the circumstances of her
early life; he is good man, and his word
must stand against the whole world on
this point, and no attempt has ever been
seriously made to overthrow that stat
ment."
We add the following letter received
from Mr.. WEIGH. the breeder of Flora
Temple:
REEDsBURG, Wis, June %, 1885.
JOSEPH BATTELL, Esq,
Deor Sir In reply to yours. would
say that Bogus Hunter was a large sor-
rel with three white feet and white strip
in face, and, think, about tel" years old
at that time. He was owned by Wash
LOOMS and stood at his stable in Sanger
field. Oneida Co., n. Y. DO not know
whether he was any relation to One-eyed
Kentucky Hunter or not; but know that
both horses were in the stable at the
time. Yours very truly,

Farmers, now is the time to correct
one mistake that Is made year after
year. A very intelligent and sue
cessful farmer remarks that from
% to so per cent. of the corn crop
is lost every year by allowing
too much crowding. He says that
when the plant is small it appears
thin enough, but it should be remem-
bered that when the corn gets five or
six feet high with long leaves il VIII
have a very different appearance.
Suppose this % or so per cent. could
be made everyyear on what is actu-
ally gathered, we would not have to

Nor would we have to buy meat to

the opinions Of others, and then try
and state my thoughts Of the matter.
Some have asked me if thought the
questions propounded and answered
were criterion of proficiency, or if
some who failed to answer might
not be, in some cases, really more
intelligent and better capaeitated to
Teach; and Others assert that ditli-

Even taking it for granted that Gsn
7Talthall did say 1t, the questions
compiled were not prepared for law

posea that teachers should prepare

Now am Of .he opinion that there
